I liked it. Some parts were hilarious, but others fell flat. B-

It's really, really stupid, but it's also super-funny. Strangely enough, most of the humour that works is the quick dialogue, while the crude slapstick more often than not falls flat. Sure, the 'story' is pretty weak, but the characters play off each other well, and I laughed a lot, much more than other, so-called 'comedies'. So it gets points for that.

Broken Lizard hasn't done anything close to this.


Beerfest was the closest in my opinion and Club Dread is very under rated...but not quite to the Super Troopers level.

Following Super Troopers won't be an easy task.
